Description

This collection of essays is from the anthropologist - a National Book Critics Circle Award-winner for "The Broken Cord" - novelist and non-fiction writer, Michael Dorris. The book reveals his thoughts and perspective on his life, work and education. Michael Dorris's essays have appeared in many national publications that run the gamut from the "New York Times" to "Ladies Journal" to "Booklist". His essays deal with his passionate concern for Native Americans, with children's rights, with his painful recognition of his adopted son's affliction with foetal alcohol syndrome and international affairs. He is the author of "A Yellow Raft in Blue Water", "Working Men, Morning Girl", and co-author with Louise Erdrich of "The Crown of Columbus".
